PSNotes v1.0.0 Released (A Snippet Library for PowerShell) (programming.dev)

I just released PSNotes v1.0.0.

PSNotes is a PowerShell module that lets you build your own snippet library with:

Aliases for quick recall
Catalog-based organization
Direct execution or clipboard copy
Executing script via paths or as saved snippets
Support for remote catalogs allowing you to have your snippets everywhere
Quick browser to see all your notes at a glance
Works from Windows Terminal, VSCode, pwsh, or any PowerShell host (even ISE if you're still using that)

The goal is simple: make it easier to reuse the commands you run constantly and remember the ones you don’t. Or if you are like me and get sick of typing out [System.Collections.Generic.List[PSObject]] forty times a day.

Full documentation and samples: https://github.com/mdowst/PSNotes

Release notes: https://github.com/mdowst/PSNotes/releases/tag/v1.0.0

PowerShell Gallery Listing: https://www.powershellgallery.com/packages/PSNotes/1.0.0.0

I hope you find it useful. And as always, I'm open to any suggestions or feedback.

It's funny that you mention that because I'm already working on a solution around that. I'm working on a solution that will periodically backup the contents from your PSReadline history and save it in a searchable format. Then have a cmdlet like Search-History "whatever keywords". I'd like to make it a daemon so it could record estimated times and what console it executed from. I know it would save me a ton for searching.

Also, my one huge-ass OneNote was the reason for me creating this. I found there were a few I kept going back for regularly and wanted a quicker way to get them. Glad to know I'm not the only one.

I search history like that:

$psHistorySavePath = (Get-PSReadLineOption).HistorySavePath
(gc $psHistorySavePath -Raw) -split '(?<=[^`])\r?\n' -replace '`\r?\n',"`n" -match 'ddrescue' | scb

It puts all ddrescue commands to clipboard, which I paste into empty Kate tab. Split and replace are to handle multiline cmds
